Waiting on Wednesday: If I Lie by Corrine Jackson

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine. Its purpose is to spotlight eagerly-anticipated upcoming releases.

This week I’m eagerly awaiting:

If I Lie by Corrine Jackson

Expected Release: August 28, 2012

Quinn’s done the unthinkable: she kissed a guy who is not Carey, her boyfriend. And she got caught. Being branded a cheater would be bad enough, but Quinn is deemed a traitor, and shunned by all of her friends. Because Carey’s not just any guy—he’s serving in Afghanistan and revered by everyone in their small, military town.

Quinn could clear her name, but that would mean revealing secrets that she’s vowed to keep—secrets that aren’t hers to share. And when Carey goes MIA, Quinn must decide how far she’ll go to protect her boyfriend…and her promise.

This is one of those books where it go could either way: it might be really well done and compelling, or it might be super contrived and totally melodramatic. I’m hoping for the former, because it sounds like it could be an interesting character study. We’ll have to wait until August to find out, though. It’s a debut author, too.
